It is an economy room so I did not want or expect much. I stayed here a few years ago and it has been cleaned up nicely. My only complaints are...the pillow cases I think were clean but the pillows were gray and worrisome. The peep hole had a wad of dirty toilet paper stuck in it. For the price it was okay but bring your own pillow.

It was pretty good. It looks like they're doing upgrades to the inside and out but the cleanliness of the room wasn't good. The bed was rough but most hotel beds aren't comfortable.

We requested a ground floor room for a disabled guest, but they can’t reserve specific rooms. The duvet cover had holes in it, presumably from cigarettes. The room smelt bad.

This motel 6 is an older building, but the pool looked clean (we didn’t use it but it looked inviting) and the area it was in was convenient and felt like a safe area. The staff were friendly and when I first arrived and could not get the TV to work they immediately moved us to a different room, which I very much appreciated. The AC worked fine as well. I have had much worse experiences in some cheap motels including this brand, so I have been avoiding them recently. However I am glad I took the risk this time and was pleasantly surprised. It’s not fancy, but I wasn’t afraid to fall asleep or walk on the floor barefoot and these days, in a least expensive motel, that’s saying something :) PS: I wish we had swim suits because the pool did look really nice!

Other than the Interstate noise due to location, Motel 6 Tumwater, Wa - Olympia is convenient to many restaurants, grocery stores, and gas stations. Staff was overwhelmingly helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here. Clean, Comfortable, and safe.
